Marketing and Publicity Officer - Into this role I am pleased to announce the appointment of Rob Allan. Marketing and Publicity are a key aspect in the promotion of the class to the wider sailing audience, presenting a strong image of a healthy and developing class, and indeed a class that is attractive to new sailors, whether at Youth level or older sailors. Rob will take a lead in ensuring that we have a regular flow of information going out to publications / websites such as Yachts and Yachting, that our own website and the class Facebook page has a regular flow of news items, notably both pre and post events. In addition, Rob will assist in developing other key promotional opportunities and media such as the Dinghy Show. He will be supported in this role by Valerie Clabburn.Publicity ultimately is something that we can all assist with, so Rob and Valerie will be seeking support from sailors and parents alike to generate a regular flow of material, which will almost certainly mean a continuation of the unwritten rule that the sailors finishing 3rd at events produce an event write-up you have been warned!Sailor Reps - I am also very pleased to announce that Tom Bucktrout has volunteered to be the Sailor Rep for the Eastern Area essentially East Anglia, Herefordshire, Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire, and Emily Robertson has volunteered to be the Sailor Rep for Scotland.
